This contribution intends to offer some reflections on the need for the redesign of socio-educational services for the elderly, starting from the assumptions of active aging and continuing education theories. In particular, through idiographic and autobiographical strategies, with the collection of life stories in an innovative living context in the city of Pavia, the research aim is to show how the redevelopment and re-thinking of a space can be a promoter of long-lasting aging and general psychophysical well-being. Finally, it tries to highlight the need for an urban and social regeneration that increasingly follows this type of models, circular and inclusive, in order to overcome the structural fragility of contemporary cities.
